Basketball Betting Tips from the Best Basketball Tipsters of the net!

I was for bookies to offer this game (total points scored) and was expecting no more than 150 points which in reality for this game should be too much anyway. ASK Riga is definetely team which relies on their defence to do the job for them. When ASK Riga is leading the game (I believe they will), head coach R.Butautas likes to slow the game down and play more tactical. Barons is a kind of team which likes to run but they don`t have outstanding shooters from perimeter. They rely on Latvian NT player A. Skele who is not the best shooter but is very good going to basket and also making plays for other teammates. It is Riga derby and most of the times those matches get nervous and very close. they played each other 2 times this season - first one was Latvian Basketball League opener and ASK won 100-99 after OT but that was very beginning of season and does not mean so much. Second game was Baltic League game - it ended 77-62 in ASK favour.

ASK Riga has very important missing - S.Valters who is one of their best shooters if not the best one.

Both teams played Eurocups in midweek and the scores were very low in both matches:

ULEB Cup: ASK - Artland 70 :60

FIBA Eurocup: Barons - Cholet 76:66

Suggesting high stakes on this one, 9/10 for me. Probable score 70 - 74.

Good Luck!!
